Prathamesh Devadiga

I am an incoming CS PhD student at Dartmouth College, working with Prof. Shawn Shan on machine learning security and LLM privacy. I completed my B.Tech in Computer Science at PES University, Bangalore.

My research sits at the intersection of ML security, production AI systems, and trustworthy AI. The core question I keep coming back to: what does a model actually know, and what are the limits of our ability to control that?

I also lead Ādhāra AI Labs, an independent research lab working on compiler optimization with small language models, efficient neural architectures, and production LLM infrastructure. I am a research affiliate at Lossfunk and completed Google Summer of Code 2025 with UCSC-OSPO.

If you would like to chat about ML security research, collaborations, or graduate school, feel free to email me.
